I normally hate to complain but the first driver was very impatient and rude. Bus was old and kept stalling second bus driver very nice and bus was much nicer.

This is was my first time riding this bus and even more so Greyhound. Coming from the base (Yes, I am military), at first sight the bus appearance was great however the second I entered into the bus there was a very strong odor in the bus not from the passengers. Second, the seat hand rail were falling about. I moved four seat because of that reasoning. The driver was pleasant and informative.
